Introduction
In today’s beauty market, choosing the right skincare can be overwhelming. Many products claim to be “natural” or “safe,” but a closer look at the ingredients often reveals a cocktail of chemicals that may do more harm than good. At SERENE SNAANA, we believe that skincare should be as pure as the food you eat — which is why our products are 100% chemical- and preservative-free.
Here are five common skincare ingredients to avoid, and what SERENE SNAANA uses instead for truly clean, natural care.
1. Parabens
Why avoid them: Parabens (like methylparaben, propylparaben, etc.) are preservatives used to extend shelf life. They’re known to disrupt hormone function by mimicking estrogen, which can lead to reproductive issues and even increase the risk of breast cancer.
What SERENE SNAANA uses instead:
We use natural preservatives such as essential oils (like rosemary and lavender), These not only help maintain freshness but also nourish and support the skin’s natural balance.
2. Synthetic Fragrances
Why avoid them: "Fragrance" on a label can be a cocktail of over 3,000 chemicals, many of which can trigger allergies, asthma, migraines, and skin irritation. Worse, companies aren't required to disclose what’s inside them.
What SERENE SNAANA uses instead:
We rely on pure essential oils like lavender, rose, or rosemary to provide gentle, natural aromas with added therapeutic benefits—without any hidden toxins.
3. Sulfates (SLS and SLES)
Why avoid them: Sulfates are harsh foaming agents that strip the skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry, irritated, or inflamed—especially for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
What SERENE SNAANA uses instead:
Our formulations are sulfate-free. We use plant-based cleansers such as soap nuts (reetha), shikakai, and clay powders that clean effectively while respecting the skin's natural balance.
4. Phthalates
Why avoid them: Often used to stabilize synthetic fragrances, phthalates have been linked to hormone disruption, liver and kidney damage, and developmental issues.
What SERENE SNAANA uses instead:
We eliminate all phthalates and use certified organic oils, hydrosols, and butters, ensuring our products are gentle, safe, and toxin-free.
5. Petroleum-Based Ingredients (e.g., Mineral Oil, Paraffin)
Why avoid them: These by-products of crude oil offer temporary softness but clog pores and prevent the skin from breathing. They can also interfere with the body’s natural detoxification process.
What SERENE SNAANA uses instead:
We use cold-pressed oils such as jojoba, almond, apricot kernel, and hempseed oil that are rich in nutrients, easily absorbed, and support long-term skin health.
